1 Mmalite oziọma maka Jisọs Kraịst, Ọkpara Chineke.
The beginning of the Gospel of Iesus Christ, the Sonne of God:
2 Dịka e dere ya rịị nʼakwụkwọ Aịzaya onye amụma sị, “Aga m ezipu onyeozi m nʼihu gị, onye ga-edozi ụzọ gị.”
As it is written in the Prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 “Otu onye na-eti mkpu nʼọzara, na-asị, ‘Dozienụ ụzọ maka Onyenwe anyị, meenụ ka okporoụzọ ya guzozie.’”
The voyce of him that cryeth in the wildernesse is, Prepare the way of the Lord: make his paths straight.
4 Jọn omee baptizim pụtara na-eme baptizim nʼọzara, ma na-ekwusa baptizim nke nchegharị maka mgbaghara mmehie.
Iohn did baptize in the wildernesse, and preach the baptisme of amendment of life, for remission of sinnes.
5 Ndị mmadụ si nʼakụkụ Judịa niile na ndị niile bi na Jerusalem pụrụ jekwuru ya. Ka ha na-ekwupụta mmehie ha, o mere ha baptizim nʼosimiri Jọdan.
And al ye countrey of Iudea, and they of Hierusalem went out vnto him, and were all baptized of him in the riuer Iordan, confessing their sinnes.
6 Uwe Jọn yi nʼahụ ya bụ nke e ji ajị ịnyịnya kamel mee. O kekwara ihe okike e ji akpụkpọ anụ mee nʼukwu ya. Nri ya bụ igurube na mmanụ aṅụ.
Nowe Iohn was clothed with camels heare, and with a girdle of a skinne about his loynes: and he did eate Locusts and wilde hony,
7 O kwusara sị: “Onye dị ike karịa m na-abịa nʼazụ m. Onye m na-erughị ihudata ala tọpụ eriri akpụkpọụkwụ ya.
And preached, saying, A stronger then I commeth after me, whose shoes latchet I am not worthy to stoupe downe, and vnloose.
8 Eji m mmiri na-eme unu baptizim, ma ọ ga-eji Mmụọ Nsọ mee unu baptizim.”
Trueth it is, I haue baptized you with water: but he will baptize you with the holy Ghost.
9 Nʼoge ahụ, Jisọs sitere na Nazaret nke Galili bịa nʼosimiri Jọdan, ebe Jọn mere ya baptizim.
And it came to passe in those dayes, that Iesus came from Nazareth, a citie of Galile, and was baptized of Iohn in Iordan.
10 Ma mgbe o si nʼime mmiri ahụ na-apụta, ọ hụrụ ka eluigwe meghere. Hụkwa Mmụọ Nsọ dị ka nduru ka ọ rịdatara bekwasị ya nʼisi ya.
And assoone as he was come out of the water, Iohn saw the heauens clouen in twaine, and the holy Ghost descending vpon him like a doue.
11 Otu olu si nʼeluigwe daa, “Ị bụ Ọkpara m hụrụ nʼanya, ihe gị dị m ezi mma.”
Then there was a voyce from heauen, saying, Thou art my beloued Sonne, in whome I am well pleased.
12 Ngwangwa, Mmụọ Nsọ duuru ya baa nʼime ọzara.
And immediatly the Spirite driueth him into the wildernesse.
13 Ọ nọkwara nʼime ọzara ahụ iri ụbọchị anọ, ebe ekwensu nwara ya ọnwụnwa. Ya na ụmụ anụ ọhịa nọkwa. Ma ndị mmụọ ozi jeere ya ozi.
And he was there in the wildernesse fourtie daies, and was tempted of Satan: hee was also with the wilde beastes, and the Angels ministred vnto him.
14 Mgbe e tinyesịrị Jọn nʼụlọ mkpọrọ, Jisọs gara na Galili, na-ekwusa oziọma Chineke.
Now after that Iohn was committed to prison, Iesus came into Galile, preaching the Gospel of the kingdome of God,
15 Ọ sịrị, “Oge ahụ eruola, alaeze Chineke dị nso. Chegharịanụ ma kwerekwanụ nʼoziọma.”
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdome of God is at hand: repent and beleeue the Gospel.
16 Mgbe Jisọs na-aga nʼakụkụ osimiri Galili, ọ hụrụ Saimọn na Andru nwanne ya, ka ha na-awụnye ụgbụ ha nʼime mmiri nʼihi na ha bụ ndị ọkụ azụ.
And as he walked by the sea of Galile, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, (for they were fishers.)
17 Jisọs siri ha, “Bịanụ soro m, m ga-emekwa unu ndị ọkụ na-akụta mmadụ.”
Then Iesus said vnto them, Folow me, and I will make you to be fishers of men.
18 Ngwangwa ha hapụrụ ụgbụ azụ ha ma soro ya.
And straightway they forsooke their nets, and folowed him.
19 Mgbe ọ gatụrụ nʼihu nke nta, ọ hụrụ Jemis nwa Zebedi na nwanne ya bụ Jọn ndị nọ nʼime ụgbọ mmiri, na-ekezi ụgbụ azụ ha.
And when hee had gone a litle further thence, he sawe Iames the sonne of Zebedeus, and Iohn his brother, as they were in the ship, mending their nets.
20 Ngwangwa, ọ kpọrọ ha, ha hapụrụ nna ha Zebedi na ndị o goro ọrụ nʼime ụgbọ soro ya.
And anon hee called them: and they left their father Zebedeus in the shippe with his hired seruants, and went their way after him.
21 Ha gara Kapanọm, mgbe ụbọchị izuike ruru, ọ bara nʼime ụlọ ekpere ma malite izi ha ihe.
So they entred into Capernaum, and straightway on the Sabbath day hee entred into the Synagogue, and taught.
22 Ozizi ya juru ha anya nke ukwuu, nʼihi na o ziri ha ihe dịka onye nwere ikike, ọ bụghị dị ka nke ndị ozizi iwu.
And they were astonied at his doctrine, for he taught them as one that had authoritie, and not as the Scribes.
23 Ma nʼotu oge ahụ, otu nwoke nọ nʼime ụlọ ekpere ahụ nke mmụọ na-adịghị ọcha bi nʼime ya, tiri mkpu nʼoke olu,
And there was in their Synagogue a man in whome was an vncleane spirite, and hee cried out,
24 sị, “Gịnị ka anyị na gị nwekọrọ, gị Jisọs onye Nazaret? Ị bịala ịla anyị nʼiyi? Amaara m onye ị bụ, Onye Nsọ nke Chineke.”
Saying, Ah, what haue we to do with thee, O Iesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy vs? I knowe thee what thou art, euen that holy one of God.
25 Ma Jisọs baara ya mba sị ya, “Mechie ọnụ sikwa nʼime ya pụta!”
And Iesus rebuked him, saying, Holde thy peace, and come out of him.
26 Mmụọ ahụ na-adịghị ọcha seere ya, mee ka ahụ ya maa jijiji, o tiri mkpu nʼoke olu, ma sikwa nʼime ya pụta.
And the vncleane spirit tare him, and cried with a loude voyce, and came out of him.
27 Ha niile bụ ndị nọ nʼọnọdụ ihe iju anya ma na-ajụrịtara onwe ha ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị bụ nke a? Ozizi ọhụrụ ya na ikike! Ọ na-enye ọ bụladị mmụọ na-adịghị ọcha iwu. Ha na-erubekwara ya isi.”
And they were all amased, so that they demaunded one of another, saying, What thing is this? what newe doctrine is this? for he commandeth euen the foule spirites with authoritie, and they obey him.
28 Akụkọ banyere ya gbasara ngwangwa ruo akụkụ niile nke Galili.
And immediatly his fame spred abroade throughout all the region bordering on Galile.
29 Ngwangwa ha hapụrụ ụlọ ekpere ahụ, ha na Jemis na Jọn soro banye nʼụlọ Saimọn na Andru.
And assoone as they were come out of the Synagogue, they entred into the house of Symon and Andrew, with Iames and Iohn.
30 Nʼoge a, nne nwunye Saimọn dina nʼakwa ndina. Ahụ ọkụ jikwa ya. Ha mere ka ọ mata banyere ya.
And Symons wiues mother lay sicke of a feuer, and anon they told him of her.
31 Ọ gakwuru ya, jide ya nʼaka selite ya elu. Ahụ ọkụ ahụ hapụrụ ya. Ọ malitekwara ile ha ọbịa.
And he came and tooke her by the hand, and lifted her vp, and the feuer forsooke her by and by, and shee ministred vnto them.
32 Nʼoge uhuruchi, mgbe anwụ dara, ha kpọtaara ya ndị niile ahụ na-esighị ike na ndị mmụọ ọjọọ bi nʼime ha.
And whe euen was come, at what time the sunne setteth, they brought to him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with deuils.
33 Obodo ahụ niile gbakọrọ nʼọnụ ụzọ.
And the whole citie was gathered together at the doore.
34 Ọ gwọrọ ọtụtụ ndị bu ọrịa dị iche iche, ọ chụpụkwara ọtụtụ mmụọ ọjọọ ma o kweghị ka mmụọ ọjọọ ndị ahụ kwuo okwu nʼihi na ha matara onye ọ bụ.
And he healed many that were sicke of diuers diseases: and he cast out many deuils, and suffred not the deuils to say that they knewe him.
35 Nʼisi ụtụtụ, mgbe ọchịchịrị ka gbachiri, o biliri, ga ebe ọ ga-anọrọ onwe ya, naanị ya. Nʼebe ahụ kwa ka ọ nọ kpee ekpere.
And in the morning very early before day, Iesus arose and went out into a solitarie place, and there praied.
36 Saimọn na ndị ya na ha nọ pụrụ na-achọgharị ya.
And Simon, and they that were with him, followed carefully after him.
37 Ma mgbe ha hụrụ ya, ha sịrị ya, “Mmadụ niile na-achọgharị gị!”
And when they had found him, they sayde vnto him, All men seeke for thee.
38 Ọ zaghachiri ha sị, “Ka anyị gaanụ ebe ọzọ, nʼobodo ndị ọzọ dị anyị gburugburu, ka m zisakwaara ha oziọma. Ọ bụ nʼihi nke a ka m ji bịa.”
Then he said vnto them, Let vs go into the next townes, that I may preach there also: for I came out for that purpose.
39 Ya mere, ọ pụrụ jegharịa na Galili niile na-ekwusa oziọma nʼụlọ ekpere ha niile, na-achụpụkwa mmụọ ọjọọ.
And hee preached in their Synagogues, throughout all Galile, and cast the deuils out.
40 Otu onye ekpenta bịakwutere ya gbuo ikpere nʼala rịọọ ya sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ị chọrọ, ị pụrụ ime ka m dị ọcha.”
And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeled downe vnto him, and said to him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me cleane.
41 Ebe o jupụtara nʼọmịiko, Jisọs setịpụrụ aka ya metụ ya sị, “Achọrọ m, dị ọcha!”
And Iesus had compassion, and put foorth his hand, and touched him, and said to him, I wil: be thou cleane.
42 Ngwangwa ekpenta ya hapụrụ ya, e mekwara ka ọ dị ọcha.
And assone as he had spoken, immediatly ye leprosie departed from him, and he was made cleane.
43 Mgbe ahụ, Jisọs ji ịdọ aka na ntị zilaga ya,
And after he had giue him a streight commandement, he sent him away forthwith,
44 ọ gwara ya sị, “Hụkwa na ọ dịghị onye ọbụla ị ga-agwa ihe a. Kama gaa gosi onye nchụaja onwe gị. Chụọkwa aja dị ka Mosis nyere nʼiwu, maka ime ka ị dị ọcha gị, ka ọ bụrụ ihe ama nye ha.”
And sayde vnto him, See thou say nothing to any man, but get thee hence, and shewe thy selfe to the Priest, and offer for thy clensing those things, which Moses commanded, for a testimoniall vnto them.
45 Ma ọ pụrụ malite ịkọsa akụkọ banyere ọgwụgwọ ya ebe niile. Nʼihi ya Jisọs enwekwaghị ike ịbanye nʼobodo, kama ọ gara nọrọ nʼebe zoro ezo. Ma ndị mmadụ na-abịakwutekwa ya site nʼebe niile dị iche iche.
But when he was departed, hee began to tel many things, and to publish the matter: so that Iesus could no more openly enter into the citie, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from euery quarter.
